From: Yorke, Samantha Sent: Friday, March 27, 2015 3:34 PM To: Michael Connors Subject: Willing to give advice to Engineering Students?

Dear Michael Joseph ,

Your contact information was available through the public Florida Board of Professional Engineers directory.

At Florida State University, our 2,000+ Engineering Students seek to connect with Professional Engineers for advice on navigating their “backpack to briefcase” transition.

To facilitate this interaction, the “ProfessioNole” Program offers students the chance to reach out to professionals throughout the community, country, and world and learn more about their field’s industry demands, career expectations, job outlook, and employment opportunities. Both alumni and friends of the University participate in ProfessioNole, making themselves available for student inquiries.

What’s unique about our program is our partnership through the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering -- both Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University and Florida State University Engineering Students have access to this database.

How much time is involved? Being a ProfessioNole Volunteer involves a minor time commitment and you can decline any requests as your schedule or preferences change.

What if I live out of state? Actually, the majority of our ProfessioNole Volunteers do not live in the Tallahassee area. Students often will correspond with our ProfessioNole Volunteers via e-mail, telephone or Skype.

How do I sign up? To register, visit the ProfessioNole site .

We hope you will consider joining the ProfessioNole database as a volunteer to share industry knowledge and advice with our students.

It's Spring - Report Spawning Horseshoe Crabs

Right-click here to download pictures. To help pro tect your privacy, Outlook prevented automatic download of this picture from the Internet. As spring approaches, horseshoe crabs mating pair of horseshoe crabs congregate to spawn along sandy beaches and shallow coastal waters throughout the state. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) biologists are asking the public to assist in the FWC's survey effort by reporting horseshoe crab sightings and other useful information.

Although horseshoe crabs mate year-round, spring is the peak season with the best luck sighting them around high tide within three days of a new or full moon. The FWC asks people to report sightings by using the online form listed under "Horseshoe Crab Nesting Activity" by going to MyFWC.com/Contact You can also email findings to [email protected] or call the FWC at 866-252-9326.

21 Observers should note the number of horseshoe crabs they see and whether those horseshoe crabs are mating. Mating crabs "pair up," with the smaller male on top of the larger female. Other male crabs may be present around the mating pair. If possible, the observer should specify roughly how many horseshoe crabs are mating adults and how many are juveniles (4 inches wide or smaller). Biologists are also interested in the date, time and location of your sighting as well as the habitat type.

Salty Topics: Seahorses Thursday, April 2 7-8:30 pm pm

Seahorses and pipefish inhabit shallow coastlines around the world, congregating in some of the most "at-risk" marine habitats on the planet - seagrasses, mangroves, and coral reefs. Even in places where they are locally abundant their distribution is patchy, with highly variable group sizes on both small and large scales.

Give Space to Florida's Beach-Nesting Shorebirds

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) asks beachgoers to watch out for and avoid disturbing beach-nesting shorebirds on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the state. Shorebirds build nests out of sand and shells on Florida beaches in spring and summer, hatching chicks that are difficult to see.

23 It can be difficult to see the eggs or Shorebird nests, eggs and chicks are well chicks of shorebirds, such as this snowy camouflaged and can be easily missed and even plover. stepped on unless people know to look out for them. The snowy plover, least tern, black skimmer, American oystercatcher and Wilson's plover are several of Florida's beach-nesting shorebird species that face conservation challenges and need people's help to survive.

Ways to protect beach-nesting shorebirds:

• Keep your distance, whether on the beach or paddling watercraft along the shore. If birds become agitated or leave their nests, you are too close. A general rule is to stay at least 300 feet from a nest. Birds calling out loudly and dive-bombing are giving signals for you to back off. • Never intentionally force birds to fly or run. They use up energy they need for nesting, and eggs and chicks may be left vulnerable to the sun's heat or predators. Teach children not to chase shorebirds and kindly ask fellow beach-goers to do the same. • Respect posted areas. Avoid posted nesting sites and use designated walkways when possible. • It is best not to take pets to the beach, but if you do, keep them on a leash and avoid shorebird nesting areas. • Spread the word. If you see people disturbing nesting birds, gently let them know how their actions may hurt the birds' survival. If they continue to disturb nesting birds, report their activities to the FWC's Wildlife Alert Hotline at 888-404-FWCC (3922), #FWC or *FWC on a cell phone or by texting [email protected]. You can also report nests that are not posted to Wildlife Alert.

ST. PETERSBURG WAVES GREEN FLAG ON FAST CARS, FAMILY FUN FOR FIRESTONE GRAND PRIX WEEKEND

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ST. PETERSBURG, FL (March 26, 2015) - Downtown St. Petersburg is open for business as the city welcomes three days of fast cars, world-class drivers and family fun on the waterfront during the 2015 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg tomorrow through Sunday, March 27-29. As the inaugural event on this year's IndyCar circuit, downtown St. Petersburg transforms into one of racing's most beautiful road courses and offers spectacular trackside waterfront views for fans of all ages. The race will be broadcast on ABC beginning at 3 p.m.

Everyone is welcome to visit St. Petersburg's dining and retail district before, during, and after the race for special discounts and race-themed festivities at participating businesses. Both the Tropicana shuttle and Looper Trolley feature extended hours until 10 p.m. all three days, to encourage relaxation after a day at the track. New this year, a signature themed cocktail, the Sun Racer, will be offered at participating locations throughout downtown, as well as in the EDGE and Grand Central districts during race weekend.

To get Grand Prix weekend off to a speedy start, everyone is invited to embrace the race with live music, food and family fun at the free Fast Friday Community Block Party tomorrow, March 27, at 5:30 p.m. The party , on Central Ave. between 2nd and 3rd Sts. S, kicks off race weekend and also serves as the official awards ceremony location for the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg 5K, which begins at 7:15 p.m. in Vinoy Park. Athletes of all ages and abilities will run along a waterfront course that includes a portion of the iconic racetrack before returning to the finish line. Modern Business Associates (MBA) is partnering with the Firestone Grand Prix for the 5K with proceeds benefiting All Children's Hospital.

Inside the track, families are welcome to experience racing's thrills a short distance from the track in the Bright House Speed Zone, while autograph seekers hope for a chance encounter with their favorite driver in the IndyCar Fan Village. Back on the track, enjoy the excitement of motocross coupled with the best of Baja when Robby Gordon's SPEED Stadium Super Trucks thrill crowds with high jumps, crossovers, whoop sections and tight corners on the 1.8 mile racecourse.

Two Bay Area athletes, including Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Alex Cobb, will play key roles in this year's event. Cobb will serve as the race's honorary starter by waving the green flag, while three-time Pro Bowl and Tampa Bay Buccaneer wide receiver Vincent Jackson will serve as the 2015 Grand Marshal, leading the driver parade during pre-race ceremonies and make the call to drivers to start their engines.

34 In addition to the featured IndyCar and Indy Lights Series races, fans also have an opportunity to watch racing's up-and- coming stars during the ProMazda, USF2000, and Pirelli World Challenge (PWC) series.

Government & Industry Invited to Attend

Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) Training - For Government to Avoid the Frustration of Not Awarding a Contract the Government Knows May Not Meet its Best Long Term Program and Cost Interests.

This Potomac Forum Workshop reviews how contractors approach LPTA, the

38 problems they face when formulating pricing in regards to specific RFP instructions, what the government needs to know about the contractors pricing approach and how the government can write RFPs and evaluate proposals to make awards that are LPTA and best meet both the short term and long term needs of the program and mission at the lowest cost.

What you will learn:

• How Contractors use LPTA RFP Deal Conditions and Terms • The Contractors Deal Shaping Processes - What the Government Needs to Know to avoid "gamesmanship" • Contractor LPTA RFP Thresholds for Compliance and Acceptability - What the government needs to know • The Effect of Variations in Source Selection - How the government should develop their acquisition plan to minimize gamesmanship • Best Value vs. LPTA the Contractor's View - What the government needs to know • Contractors approach to LPTA • The Contractor Readying Process for LPTA: Cost/Price to be Successful Basis - What the government needs to know • Price to be Successful and LPTA the Contractor's View • How Contractors Approach Bidding the Requirements - What government needs to know • The Effect of The Government Evaluation Structure on Contractor Proposal Submissions • Pricing Strategy, RFP Fundamentals the Contractor's View • How Contractors Approach Opportunity Assessment - How the government can "turn off" the best contractors from bidding and why • The Contractor Pricing Process - What the Government Needs to Know • How Contractors Approach Evaluation, Reality Modeling and Gaming o

· Why you should attend: This 100% educational workshop will teach the government how to construct a more effective LPTA solicitation, avoiding some common errors that embed opportunities for contractors to employ confusing pricing strategies and "game" the system. The workshop will provide the government with a "contractor's" view of an RFP and the challenges they face in bidding it effectively and performing after award. You will learn what contractors like to see, what they dread seeing in LPTA RFP's, and what the government can do to get better long term contractor performance at a better price.

Who should attend: Government and Industry While this program is conducted for the government, industry is also invited to attend. The "Government - Industry" mix will enhance discussion and learning.

Government:

39 • Federal executives and managers responsible for developing solicitation documents or acquisition strategies: products, systems, or services • Program Managers and Staff responsible for planning and implementing an acquisition program • Contracting Office personnel interested in understanding an acquisition from a program perspective • CAOs and Procurement Office Staff • CTOs and Staff interested in gaining insight into the acquisition process • CIOs, Deputy CIOs and Staff • IGs and Staff • All government Executives, Managers or Staff responsible for developing, reviewing solicitation documents or source selection

Today's News For Michael Connors March 27, 2015

From NSPE

NSPE Advocates for Professional Engineers on Capitol Hill

On March 19, NSPE participated in the 2015 Society of Women Engineers Capitol Hill Day to discuss issues of importance to professional engineers.

Learn more on NSPE's Issues and Advocacy page .

Leading the News

California’s Clean Energy Growing Faster Than Ability To Store It. The San Jose (CA) Mercury News (3/27, Smuga-Otto) reports that “nearly 23 percent of California’s energy now comes from renewable sources such as wind and solar...but feeding all that green energy into the Golden State’s grid — without overloading it — has become a major challenge.” According to the article, “while the technology to generate clean energy is growing by leaps and bounds, efforts to store the power haven’t kept up,” and the dilemma “has forced the energy industry to rethink the way we make and use electricity.” The article reports that a “quick source of electricity could come from storage,” and while storage capacity isn’t there now, but the California Public Utilities Commission “has mandated that Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas and Electric have a combined 1,325 megawatts of storage no later than 2024.” California Hits Five Percent Solar Milestone As Hydroelectric Wanes. Bloomberg News (3/26, Randall) reports that, even excluding rooftop solar, “California is now the first US state to get 5 percent of its annual utility-scale electricity from the sun” even as years of drought have cut its hydroelectric power by move than half.

Public Safety

Senators Introduce Oil Train Safety Bill.

46 Several national and local news outlets continue coverage of the Crude-By-Rail Safety Act of 2015, a bill introduced this week by Sens. Maria Cantwell and Tammy Baldwin. The legislation, which comes in the wake of recent oil train derailments, seeks to improve the safety of transporting oil by rail. The Huffington Post (3/27, Sheppard) reports that under the bill, the PHMSA would be required to regulate the volatility of gases in tank cars. It adds that the legislation would also direct the agency to end the use of older tank cars. Cantwell emphasized the need to quickly act on the issue of oil train safety, saying, “We can’t afford to wait for ten accidents per year, as estimated by the” DOT. Meanwhile, The Hill (3/26, Cama, Laing) notes that Cantwell “disputed assertions” that the PHMSA does not have the “legal authority to regulate the volatility of crude oil.” Bloomberg Politics (3/26, Snyder) reports that Cantwell and other Senate Democrats have complained that the efforts by the Obama Administration to improve oil train safety have been “inadequate.” The article notes that the White House is now reviewing a proposal from the DOT, which would phase-out older tank cars, and require new rail cars “to have thicker walls, better brakes and tougher valves to minimize spill risks in a derailment.” Cantwell remarked that the bill introduced Wednesday shows the lawmakers’ “impatience with the fact that we’re in a rulemaking process that doesn’t include volatility.” Also covering the story in a similar manner as the sources above are the San Juan (WA) Islander (3/27, Thomas), the Skagit Valley (WA) Herald (3/27), the Kenosha (WI) News (3/27, Brines), and the Dubuque (IA) Telegraph Herald (3/26). More Oil Train Derailments Expected Amid Rise In Crude-By-Rail. Fox News (3/27, Tenney) reports online that with the sharp rise in oil shipped by rail, local officials across the nation are urging Federal regulators to adopt stricter safety standards on the tank cars hauling crude oil. These officials are specifically focusing their efforts to halt the use of DOT-111 tank cars. Rep. Peter DeFazio is quoted in the piece as saying that the NTSB has said DOT-111s “are totally inadequate for the task to which we put them.” Additionally, the article notes that a 2014 DOT report “predicts an average of 10 oil train derailments” annually over the next 20 years.

Research and Funding

Volvo Drastically Cuts Tool Production Time With 3D Printing. The Industrial Equipment News (3/27) reports that Volvo Trucks is using additive manufacturing technology to “design and manufacture certain tools” in nearly 94 percent less time than its traditional method, significantly improving their “production plant’s overall efficiency and flexibility.” According to Pierre Jenny, the manufacturing director at Volvo Trucks, the use of 3D printing technology has “saved costs by reducing wastage.” The article notes that in the three months that Volvo Trucks has been using its newly acquired 3D printer, it has produced 30 items ranging from “clamps, jigs, supports, and even ergonomically designed tool holders.”

Flexible Wing Could Allow Some UAVs To Survive Collisions. Popular Science (3/26, Atherton) reported that Amanda Stowers and David Lentink of Stanford University have developed “a miniature robot with a wing span of almost 16 inches” to demonstrate how a “bio-inspired” flexible wing could allow UAVs to collide with some structures, like branches, and “bounce back.” By using a hinge for “passive folding,” no motor or controls would be needed to restore the wing’s shape after a collision. The article noted that the technology would be a “boon” for smaller UAVs because it “saves space” that would have been taken up by sensors or motors.

Group Of Business Executives Urge Tripling Of US Energy Research Funding. The Hill (3/27, Floyd) runs on its “Congress Blog” an op-ed by Harry Floyd of the Clean Fairfax Council who writes that the American Energy Innovation Council released a report concluding that “America needs to triple its current funding” dedicated to energy research, development, and demonstration. The AEIC states that, “technology innovation enables new, expanded possibilities for economic action. Business innovations find new ways to translate those possibilities into sustainable market propositions.”

Education

Good News This Week For STEM Education Efforts. Fierce CIO (3/27, Weldon) reports that there were “three major developments around STEM” fields this week, including an announcement by the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation that it will award $1.6 million in STEM education grants “to help educate and train more young adults” entering STEM-related careers. The article notes that the White House announced that various organization have committed to promoting STEM education, with those commitments including over “$240 million in funding for tech training programs around the country.” Finally,

47 the article reports that colleges and universities across the US are becoming more interested in STEM fields as indicated by “a new building boom on STEM-related facilities.”

Zakaria Questions Focus On STEM Education. The Washington Post (3/26) publishes an opinion piece by Fareed Zakaria, who laments America’s “obsession” with science, technology, engineering and math education, which he argues comes at the expense of “broad-based learning” and “puts America on a dangerously narrow path for the future.” To support his point, Zakaria highlights a recent speech by Jack Ma, who argued “that the Chinese are not as innovative as Westerners because China’s educational system, which teaches the basics very well, does not nourish a student’s complete intelligence.” He quotes Ma as saying “Many painters learn by having fun, many works [of art and literature] are the products of having fun. So, our entrepreneurs need to learn how to have fun, too.”

Workforce

Report Warns Of Growing Tech Workforce Gender Gap. USA Today (3/26, Guynn) reports on the challenges facing those who want the “culture of Silicon Valley to be more inclusive of women and people from underrepresented groups,” noting that despite relatively equal rates of math and science proficiency among male and female high school graduates, “boys are more likely to pursue engineering and computing degrees in college.” The gap grows at the graduate level and in the workforce, where “women are dramatically underrepresented in engineering and computing.” The paper reports that the American Association of University Women has released a new report warning that “the gender gap in technology is widening as women are being held back by stereotypes and biases.”

Also in the News

In Manufacturing Revamp, Toyota Turns To Modular Assembly To Cut Costs. (3/27, Kubota, Subscription Publication) reports that on Thursday, Toyota announced a restructuring of its manufacturing process. The company is looking to use its Toyota New Global Architecture Program to sharply cut its costs by sharing a large number of common components between different vehicles. The Journal says that it is a path first followed by Volkswagen. The AP (3/27, Kageyama) reports that Toyota hopes that the new “architecture” will “be more immune to quality problems, and allow it to keep growing in a sustainable way.” The first vehicles produced under the system, “medium-size front-wheel drive cars, will roll out later this year and will be expanded to half its lineup by 2020, Toyota said.” Reuters (3/26) reports that savings from the initiative will be used to add new high-tech features to vehicles, such as automatic braking.

Roads and Highways

Foxx, Shuster Discuss Infrastructure Funding Solutions At Forum. Equipment World (3/27, Hill) reports that during an infrastructure forum hosted by the National Journal, House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bill Shuster and Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx discussed the need for continuous infrastructure funding. However, the article adds that the two didn’t “address how the Obama Administration and the Republican majority could break the methodology impasse.” According to the article, Foxx touted a plan implementing “tax reform, including repatriation of domestic companies’ foreign profits,” as a way to fund infrastructure projects. Shuster dismissed the plan, saying that it’s “not a ‘possible’ solution,” the report notes.

EPA Says Cars Are Exceeding Emissions Standards. The Hill (3/27, Cama) reports that according to the EPA yesterday, cars sold in the US have “exceeded federal 2013 greenhouse gas emissions standards on average,” for the second consecutive year. The agency “said the figures show that the Obama administration’s aggressive efficiency and emissions standards are working better than planned.” USA Today (3/27, Woodyard, Today) reports the auto industry overall “stayed ahead of the national greenhouse gas emissions standard by 12 grams a mile,” equating to 1.4 miles per gallon, according to the EPA. The article notes that car makers “are required to meet stricter standards through 2025.”

48 According to Bloomberg News (3/26), the improved fuel efficiencies show that moves by automakers to reduce car weight and to introduce “fuel-saving technology is enough to offset consumers gravitating back to sport-utility vehicles and away from electric cars and hybrids.”

Low Gas Prices Encourage Record Driving Levels. In continuing coverage, the Wall Street Journal (3/27, Kingsbury) reports that the latest figures from the DOT indicate that in January, US motorists drove 237.3 billion miles, the most ever reported for the month. The article also notes that in 2014, Americans drove 3.05 trillion miles. The Journal says that the low fuel prices contributed to the spike in miles driven.

Ford Developing Tech To Prevent You From Speeding. CTV News (CAN) (3/27, Maronese) reports that Ford is working on new technology in its European market “that will help drivers avoid accidentally breaking the speed limit.” The article notes that Ford vehicles will be equipped with an “Intelligent Speed Limiter,” a system that includes a camera that can “detect a roadside speed limit sign” and signal the vehicle to slow down to under the posted limit. According to the article, the feature, which has a manual override, also works with GPS and navigation systems, allowing it to “predict when the speed limit will drop on the road ahead...and automatically adjust.” However, CTV News reports that “Ford has not explained whether or not the technology will be made available in North America.”

Energy

DOE Interested In Proposed WCS Facility For Nuclear Waste. The “Morning Energy” blog of Politico (3/27, Dixon) reports that the Energy Department “and four top senators will work together in the coming month to determine what authority DOE may need from Congress in order to use a proposed private nuclear waste storage facility.” The Waste Control Specialists-proposed facility, “projected to come online in 2020 without any federal funding, would be licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.” WCS “hopes to snag DOE as a customer to store the nation’s growing piles of spent fuel there, which would likely require congressional approval.”

Hydraulic Fracturing Advances Discussed. The Wall Street Journal (3/26, Strassel, Subscription Publication)reported an interview with Marc Davidson of Halliburton and Deb Frodl from GE, where the pair discuses different techniques developed by their companies to allay fears for the environment. Davidson talked about his company’s use of water and sand and its efforts to rely on systems that are completely sourced from the food industry. For her part, Frodl discussed her company’s testing of CO2 and its efforts to develop a financially viable technology that would not require the use of water.

Global Wind Industry Grows 42 Percent In 2014. The Denver Business Journal (3/27, Hendee, Subscription Publication) reports in its “Earth To Power” blog that a report by Navigant Research indicated that the global wind industry saw a 42 percent growth in 2014 “largely fueled by policy-driven acceleration of the wind power industry in China, Germany and the United States,” and expansion in Brazil, Turkey, France and Canada.

Microsoft Excel offers unmatched data analysis features with which you can pinpoint sales trends, track customers, create invoices, chart progress, make calculations, and even decide future business plans based on data analysis. And that sparse list only scratches the surface of what Excel can do.

But you can’t use Excel to its fullest potential unless you know how to wield the program’s more advanced features. Let us help!

The Excel Data Handbook: Quick Tips and Techniques for Formatting, Sorting & Counting is a new manual developed by the staff of Inside Microsoft Excel and authored by Excel expert Dennis Taylor . It’s designed to take you through advanced Excel features step by step so that you can put them into practice right away.

Whether you want to learn the newest Excel features—such as Sparklines and the AGGREGATE function—or you’ve always wanted a firmer understanding of PivotTables and PivotCharts, this is the resource you’ve been looking for.

The Excel Data Handbook will teach you to:

• Use conditional formatting to compare data in seconds • Simplify data set work with the Table feature • Apply Data Validation to keep data entry accurate • Sort data three ways and use advanced filtering techniques • Perform calculations on data subsets using the Subtotals feature • Find data automatically based on a reference table using VLOOKUP

58 • Use MÅTCH and INDEX functions to do what VLOOKUP can’t • Change PivotTable layouts for different data views • Get a flexible view of your PivotTable data with PivotCharts • Understand FREQUENCY , TREND , and GROWTH array functions • Filter data on the fly with Slicers • And so much more!

Don't be intimidated by Excel's more advanced features any longer. This handy manual will break down these features into language you can understand, provide real-world examples for applying them in your own work, and use color pictures to guide you through our step-by-step instructions. We'll take you from a beginning Excel user to an advanced Excel user-and make the process painless. You May Also like : Microsoft Office 2013

ST. PETERSBURG WAVES GREEN FLAG ON FAST CARS, FAMILY FUN FOR FIRESTONE GRAND PRIX WEEKEND

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ST. PETERSBURG, FL (March 26, 2015) - Downtown St. Petersburg is open for business as the city welcomes three days of fast cars, world-class drivers and family fun on the waterfront during the 2015 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg tomorrow through Sunday, March 27-29. As the inaugural event on this year's IndyCar circuit, downtown St. Petersburg transforms into one of racing's most beautiful road courses and offers spectacular trackside waterfront views for fans of all ages. The race will be broadcast on ABC beginning at 3 p.m.

Everyone is welcome to visit St. Petersburg's dining and retail district before, during, and after the race for special discounts and race-themed festivities at participating businesses. Both the Tropicana shuttle and Looper Trolley feature extended hours until 10 p.m. all three days, to encourage relaxation after a day at the track. New this year, a signature themed cocktail, the Sun Racer, will be offered at participating locations throughout downtown, as well as in the EDGE and Grand Central districts during race weekend.

To get Grand Prix weekend off to a speedy start, everyone is invited to embrace the race with live music, food and family fun at the free Fast Friday Community Block Party tomorrow, March 27, at 5:30 p.m. The party kicks off race weekend and also serves as the official awards ceremony location for the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg 5K, which begins at 7:15 p.m. in Vinoy Park. Athletes of all ages and abilities will run along a waterfront course that includes a portion of the iconic racetrack before returning to the finish line. Modern Business Associates (MBA) is partnering with the Firestone Grand Prix for the 5K with proceeds benefiting All Children's Hospital.

Inside the track, families are welcome to experience racing's thrills a short distance from the track in the Bright House Speed Zone, while autograph seekers hope for a chance encounter with their favorite driver in the IndyCar Fan Village. Back on the track, enjoy the excitement of motocross coupled with the best of Baja when Robby Gordon's SPEED Stadium Super Trucks thrill crowds with high jumps, crossovers, whoop sections and tight corners on the 1.8 mile racecourse.

Two Bay Area athletes, including Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Alex Cobb, will play key roles in this year's event. Cobb will serve as the race's honorary starter by waving the green flag, while three-time Pro Bowl and Tampa Bay Buccaneer wide receiver Vincent Jackson will serve as the 2015 Grand Marshal, leading the driver parade during pre-race ceremonies and make the call to drivers to start their engines.

In addition to the featured IndyCar and Indy Lights Series races, fans also have an opportunity to watch racing's up-and- coming stars during the ProMazda, USF2000, and Pirelli World Challenge (PWC) series. Race fans can look for St. Petersburg resident and IndyCar driver Sebastien Bourdais or USF2000 driver Ayla Agren, also a St. Petersburg resident, on and off the track.

Dear Friends,

Today is 4-H Day at the state Capitol, and it reminds me of my days in 4-H and the valuable lessons I learned.

4-H and other agriculture organizations teach our next generation about dedication, integrity, public speaking, leadership and so much more. And these values transcend agriculture; they're important no matter what career these kids choose to pursue.

It's often said that the members of 4-H will one day be leaders in Florida's agriculture industry, which generates $120 billion in annual economic impact and supports more than 2 million jobs, but I don't believe that. Kids involved in 4-H and other agriculture organizations are the leaders of today. They're already making a difference for Florida and our agriculture industry.

Adam

Pointers About Sharps Disposal By Anne Germain Recyclers are increasingly suffering from trypanophobia. What’s trypanophobia? That’s the word for needle phobia. It is estimated that between 4 percent and 20 percent of people fear needles. Most of these fears are baseless and irrational— but, can cause behavior changes that put them at risk—such as avoiding the doctor, refusing routine blood tests and failing to use prescriptions that require injections. Unfortunately, the risk for the recycling industry is very real. FULL ARTICLE

In ternet.

CDM Smith is proud to announce the next installment of our webinar series on Alternative Delivery: Building Better Designs...

Optimizing Your Delivery Method: Let Your Project Goals Be Your Guide

Thursday, April 9, 2015 1 p.m. Eastern

Do you have a project that’s mission-critical, faces a challenging schedule, needs to meet a tight budget, for which failure is not an option? CDM Smith experts explain how alternative delivery methods like Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) and Progressive Design-Build can offer significant advantages to project owners dealing with these challenges. When a delivery method is selected based on a project’s key goals and drivers, the value of the project is greatly enhanced. But to successfully optimize the choice for alternative delivery, a project owner should understand all the options and know how to get the entire organization on board. This webinar will detail the pros and cons of various delivery approaches and answer common questions that project owners have when considering alternative delivery.

Our experts will address the following questions:

-- What are my options for alternative delivery, and what are the relative strengths of each approach?

-- What delivery methods fit best with common key project drivers?

-- How do I persuade my internal stakeholders that alternative delivery is the best choice for my project?

-- How do I develop contracts that effectively manage risk and can win the approval of my city attorney?

-- How can I be sure that my organization retains the level of control and input that’s right for us?

This webinar features:

• Chitra Foster, PE, DBIA. With 18 years of U.S. and international experience in a diverse range of water and wastewater projects, Ms. Foster is one of CDM Smith’s leading alternative delivery practitioners. She is a board member of the Water Design-Build Council and an expert in regulatory and market drivers facing water/wastewater project owners.

182 • Peter T. Bailey. Over the course of his three-decade career, Mr. Bailey has been responsible for the implementation of more than $400M in construction project activity. He has helped many CDM Smith clients explore and optimize alternative delivery of key projects, including CMAR and design-build approaches. • Doug Varner, P.E. Mr. Varner is a civil engineer with experience working on diverse projects, including delivering projects through design-bid-build, CMAR, and the design-build delivery methods. His experience includes serving as principal in charge, project manager, construction manager and inspector for capital improvement projects for private and municipal customers. Mr. Varner has helped several clients successfully plan and execute their first alternative delivery projects.

Check out our panelists’ full bios and register for the webinar today !

Participants in this webinar will receive 1 PDH through IACET-accredited CDM Smith University.

Amazon Facts: Amazon owns 10 percent of North American E-Commerce. Office Depot, Stapes, Apple, Dell, WalMart, Sears, and Liberty all own another 10 percent of the market, the same size as Amazon. That leaves 1,000+ retailers to all fight for the remaining 80 percent.

Amazon.com employees spend two days every two years working at the customer service desk, even the CEO. This practice is to help all workers understand the customer service process.

More Cool Facts: Greg Linden a former Amazon employee who invented the recommendation engine described Amazon's initial frugality. Linden writes, "the quintessential example of Amazon's frugality was the door desk. Leave it to Jeff Bezos. Buy a wooden door, preferably a hollow core wooden door with no holes pre-drilled. Saw a couple 4" x 4" x 6' pillars in half. Bolt them to the door with a couple of scary looking angle brackets. Put it in front of a programmer. Door desk."

Amazon's current logo was designed to depict a smile that goes from A to Z. "This signifies that the company is willing to deliver everything to everyone, anywhere in the world."

From: Your Skin Regimen Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2015 12:18 PM To: Michael Connors Subject: How can you still look amazing without makeup?

Celebs aren't relying on a syringe anymore to make their skin look so great.

You CAN look as youthful as your favorite people on television and the secret lies below. http://www.springdaleskinsystems.com/oxygenize-795-boodler_underpowered.htm

------|Share your results on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram | ------

If you feel a breakout on the horizon, try a preventive treatment like Ultra Pimple Blocker Pen ($10, at drugstores). Says Parenthood makeup artist: Its a favorite on set when one of the cast members feels a pimple coming on. Got oily skin? Use a product with sulfur weekly to soak up excess oil without over-drying. A diet tweak can also help. I tell a lot of my patients to avoid dairy four weeks before they have to be on a set, Dr. Wu says. Your body retains the extra hormones from cows milk, which can aggravate pimple-prone skin. Even cutting back can make a difference. Ive seen results in as little as a week, says Dr. Lee

You're a colorist at one of the biggest salons in the New York City. Is this your dream job? I've always been fascinated with color and wanted to do something in the arts. As I got a little older, I started coloring my own hair and fell so in love with it that I signed up for beauty schoolI never looked back! Eventually, I assisted at a few big salons in New York City, including Oribe and Peter Coppola, before they closed. I got my big break seven months

190 into my job assisting the color director at the John Barrett Salon. She felt that I belonged on the floor, and I was finally promoted. As drawn-out as my start was, I'm glad that it worked out how it did. I learned different techniques from so many talented people. I ended up working as a colorist at John Barrett for seven years, honing my style while utilizing all that I had learned. After feeling like Id truly mastered my craft, I decided that I wanted to be at the go-to place in New York City. I just had to be a part of the team at the Rita Hazan Salon.

Tell us about your Latin background and how it's influenced your success. My mother came to New York from the Dominican Republic and my father from Ecuador. Above all, they valued hard work. They also held lots of family events so I learned to be a good host! That foundation has definitely been advantageous in this career.

We find ourselves with another massive pile of trees and brush that no one seems able to dislodge, and it's sort of on the right of way and sort of on the golf course and possibly some of it is on the adjacent property. Could you please send someone out to look at this and see if the city can offer any assistance in cleaning it out? It's growing out of control and obviously has been for some time. The country club came out and did some trimming but it looks like they were only able to get to the tree line, which isn't even their problem. Address is 2711 Desoto - it's on the corner where Desoto meets Catalonia.

Photos are in a separate email. I know for a fact that the country club does not have the equipment needed to dislodge this stuff.

Supreme Court's Omnicare Ruling Advances Investor Rights By Clarifying Liability for Misleading Opinions in Offering Documents

March 26, 2015

On March 24, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court reaffirmed the importance of investors' rights by clarifying the expansive liability provided under the federal securities laws for damages incurred by investors under a registration statement containing false or misleading statements of "opinion."

The issue before the Court in Omnicare Inc. vs. Laborers District Council Construction Industry Pension Fund et al . was the standard of liability for false statements of "opinion" in securities offering documents under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the '33 Act), the core statute under the federal securities laws addressing registration and disclosure liability. Omnicare, the Chamber of Commerce, and other well-funded corporate interests argued that there should be no liability under Section 11 for objectively false statements of opinion in offering materials unless investors can both plead and prove that a corporate official, underwriter, auditor, or other expert who offered the opinion did not genuinely believe it - obviously an extremely difficult standard for investors to meet in the vast majority of cases, especially at the beginning of the case without the benefit of any formal discovery.

In a 7-2 decision written by Justice Elena Kagan, the Court established an additional "reasonable investor" test in which statements of opinion in offering documents can give rise to Section 11 liability if they omit key facts about the opinion that would be important to a reasonable investor. Under Omnicare , investors are no longer required to plead (and ultimately prove) that an issuer, underwriter, auditor or other expert did not genuinely hold an opinion expressed in an offering document in order to pursue a claim under Section 11. Instead, investors may also recover under Section 11 if a registration statement omits material facts about a company's "inquiry into or knowledge concerning a statement of opinion, and if those facts conflict with what a reasonable investor would take from the statement itself." In other words, that the opinion lacked a reasonable basis when made. In announcing the additional "reasonable investor" test, the Court recognized that investors rely on the integrity of all statements in offering documents, including those cloaked as opinions, as well as the special knowledge of the corporate officials and other experts that convey information to investors and sign the registration statement. Significantly, the Court firmly rejected the notion that its decision would chill disclosures useful to investors, and emphasized that this developed liability standard would chill only "misleading opinions" while encouraging "better disclosure " to the markets.

In reaching its important decision in Omnicare , the Supreme Court considered an amicus curiae (or "friend of the court") brief filed by BLB&G and its Supreme Court counsel of Record, Massey & Gail LLP, on behalf of over 40 prominent institutional investors representing over $2 trillion in assets under management. We believe that the institutional investor community's strong support for the respondents in Omnicare was likely an important factor in the Supreme Court's decision.

From: 1000 Friends of Florida Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2015 9:39 AM To: Michael Connors Subject: IMPORTANT! Please Contact Legislators on Amendment 1

Right-click here to download pictures. To help protect your privacy, Outlook prevented automatic download of this picture from the Internet.

Dear Michael,

Friends, we need your help to make sure that Florida Forever receives the funding it deserves and the intent of the voters is carried out in the Legislature. Please visit yes1fl.org/2015presskit and follow the instructions. The page will give you the names, contact information, and talking points for key legislators.

Legislative budget proposals by the Florida House and Senate fall shockingly short on funding for Florida Forever--the state's conservation land acquisition program. These proposals have a long way to go before they satisfy the intent of Florida voters who overwhelmingly voted in favor of renewed funding for parks, wildlife habitat and conservation lands last November. Instead of funding land acquisition, both the House and Senate have provided millions of dollars to cover existing agency operating expenses and other spending that doesn't meet the intent of Florida voters, while largely ignoring the primary motivation behind Amendment 1: funding Florida Forever.

The Senate proposal passed by the full Appropriations Committee yesterday provides only $2 million to fund land acquisition under the Florida Forever program. That would be an 84% cut to Florida Forever from last year and a more than 99% cut from historic funding levels .

Preserving land is the most effective way to offset the negative impacts of urban sprawl in our communities. A report issued last week found that from 2000- 2010 urban sprawl covered more than 1,200 square miles of Florida land formerly in agriculture and natural habitat . Acquiring critical natural lands through program like Florida Forever is essential to restore the balance between growth today and ensuring a healthy environment and economy for future generations of Floridians . For More Information

233 As the session progresses we will continue to update you on these and other pieces of key legislation. To find out about what else is proposed this session, please visit 1000 Friends' 2015 Florida Legislative Session webpage , sign up for email alerts , and participate in 1000 Friends' May 13 Florida Legislative Wrap Up webinar .

AAA Report Sheds Light On Distracted Teen Driving. AAA’s report on teen drivers garnered continuing coverage in the media Wednesday, with network television devoting more than five minutes to the story. NBC Nightly News (3/25, story 8, 1:50, Holt) reported that teens are being “driven by distraction” and “putting their safety and yours in jeopardy.” In its report, the “AAA found distractions contributed to 58 percent of the teen crashes it studied. Cell phones a factor 12 percent of the time.” According to Peter Kissinger, AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety CEO, “Over 50 percent of the teen drivers that were on a cell phone took no evasive action. They didn’t steer and they didn’t brake until they hit the vehicle in front of them.” The CBS Evening News (3/25, story 7, 2:05, Pelley) reported that the AAA study “analyzed 1,700 teenaged car accidents, all of them captured on

238 videotape.” It can be seen how drivers’ eyes “are so attached to their phones, [that] they leave the road on the right or cross the center line to the left, often without realizing what’s happening.” According to ABC World News (3/25, story 11, 1:35, Muir), the study found that the most common distraction was talking to a fellow passenger, followed by texting and talking on cell phones. The Los Angeles Times (3/26, Muskal) reports that “AAA’s findings are larger than the previous numbers used by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration which estimated that distraction was a factor in only 14% of all teen driver crashes. ... The federal agency said it was looking at the report.” The Los Angeles Times said AAA is calling for more parental involvement and for “state laws [to] prohibit cell phone use by teen drivers and restrict passengers to one non-family member for the first six months of driving.”

USA Today (3/25, Healey) reports on Wednesday Ford Motor announced “three separate recalls that total about 221,000 North American trucks and SUVs – nearly all in the U.S.” Included are Ford Explorer SUVs, Ford Police Interceptor Unity vehicles, Lincoln MKT limousines, and several ambulance vehicles. It reports that Ford “says it knows of no accidents or injuries as a result of the faults, but has cataloged two underhood fires.” The International Business Times (3/26, Young) reports that the problems involve interior door handles, exhaust gas temperature sensors, and a “faulty vacuum pump relay that could result in a fire beneath the hood.”

Democratic Senators Call For Tighter Oil Train Safety. Reuters (3/25, Rucker) reports that Democratic Senators called on the Obama Administration to implement oil train safety regulations in light of recent accidents. They also urged for the adoption of tougher standards that would provide added stability yo the crude being transported. “This bill is showing our impatience with the fact that (the White House plan) doesn’t include volatility and we think it should,” Washington Sen. Maria Cantwell said of legislation she introduced and which is cosponsored by fellow Democratic Sens. Patty Murray of Washington state, Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin and Dianne Feinstein of California. “We have a safe system today and we are now pushing to have zero incidents,” said Jack Gerard, president of the American Petroleum Institute. “We just can’t arbitrarily come in and start re-configuring the balance that we have already achieved.”

Law and Policy

Supreme Court Appears Split On EPA Pollution Rules. McClatchy (3/26, Doyle, Subscription Publication) predicts “some environmental protections could face a hazier future after a Supreme Court argument Wednesday in an important clean-air case that’s already divided states and leading energy companies.” Justices appeared “split over whether the Environmental Protection Agency must take cost into account in deciding to regulate mercury and other toxic emissions from coal- and oil-fired power plants,” with “all smoke signs” suggesting “an eventual 5-4 decision, though it’s unclear in which direction it will blow.” (3/26, Liptak, Subscription Publication) similarly describes the court as “closely divided over the fate of one of the Obama administration’s most ambitious environmental initiatives,” while Reuters (3/26, Hurley) indicates the five conservative justices, including Anthony Kennedy, appeared skeptical of the rules. The Washington Post (3/26, Barnes) notes that the “four consistently liberal justices” on the court “all voiced support for the EPA’s reading of the law.” The Wall Street Journal (3/26, Kendall, Subscription Publication) casts Kennedy as the key vote, but does not characterize his position during yesterday’s arguments.

House Subcommittee Passes GOP Coal Ash Bill. The Hill (3/26, Cama) reports that a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee “passed a Republican-backed bill aimed at adding certainty to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) coal ash disposal rule.” The bill “passed 16 to 5 Wednesday, with three Democrats joining all the Republicans to vote for it.” The Rep. David McKinley-sponsored bill “answers a number of concerns Republicans and utilities had with the EPA’s December rule, which set the first national standards for storage and disposal of coal ash waste at power plants and in landfills.” The legislation “improves enforcement mechanisms by requiring states to set up permit systems for coal ash sites, while removing some of the requirements of the EPA rule, like public disclosure of the status of disposal ponds and pits.” Democrats contend “that the bill is unnecessary, and would push back deadlines while weakening the rule.”

Research and Funding

239 Facebook Working Hard To Develop Artificial Intelligence Software. The International Business Times (3/25, Nordrum) reports Yann LeCun, “head of Facebook’s Artificial Intelligence Research lab, spoke Tuesday about how Facebook originally built the tools that currently handle the site’s many photos and how his team plans to expand on that proficiency to build the next generation of artificial-intelligence software.” LeCun and his 40-member team are “in a race against other major technological companies, including Google, to create the fastest and most sophisticated systems not only for facial recognition but also for a whole suite of products built on the tenets of artificial intelligence.”

Global Hawk UAVs Will Continue Studying Storms This Hurricane Season. Inside Unmanned Systems (3/25, Knight) reported that NASA’s Global Hawk UAVs will continue “to study severe storms” this year under the Sensing Hazards Through Operational Unmanned Technology (SHOUT) program. Gerry Heymsfield of the Goddard Space Flight Center said that NASA Is interested in using the Global Haws because “we basically want to know what makes hurricanes intensify rapidly. ... We don’t know why they intensify in 6 to 12 hours or what causes a hurricane to really strengthen. Say a storm gets near the coast. Then we’re worried about if it will intensify or not. This information will help better predict that.” New flights under SHOUT are scheduled “for the 2015 and 2016 hurricane seasons, and possibly beyond.” UAVs Will Track Stray Dogs In Houston. Popular Science (3/25, Atherton) reported that the World Animal Awareness Society wants to use DJI Inspire UAVs “to track stray dogs” in the Houston area. According to the article, mapping and tracking strays would be impossible without the technology. The footage will also be used for a new TV show “billed as a ‘cross between Pit Bulls & Parolees, Deadliest Catch, and Survivor.’” No network has yet picked up the show.

Boeing’s Third EcoDemonstrator Makes Its First Flight. Aviation Week (3/25, Norris) reported that Boeing’s third ecoDemonstrator technology testbed made its first flight on March 17. The modified Boeing 757 flew with “an actively blown vertical tail and new wing-leading-edge sections” as part of a program “conducted jointly with NASA as part of the agency’s Environmentally Responsible Aviation (ERA) program” and supported by TUI, a European airline group. According to the article, the technology could improve fuel burn and reduce a plane’s tail size. The flights are expected to continue though July.

Lock Reopens In Upper Great Lakes, Cargo Shipping To Resume. The AP (3/26) reports that on Wednesday night, the navigational lock complex at Sault Ste. Marie reopened for “another cargo shipping season” in the upper Great Lakes after being closed for maintenance since January 15. According to the article, the locks allow vessels to “move between Lakes Huron and Superior.”

New York Town Adopts Geothermal Building Code. Newsday (3/26, Harrison) reports that Smithtown, New York has adopted a geothermal building code. Supporting the move, Michael Kaufman of the Suffolk County Planning Commission said that Long Island has “some of the highest electric rates in the entire nation.”

Roads and Highways

Majority Of Travelers Willing To Pay Higher Fees To Fund Airport Improvements. The Hill (3/26, Laing) reports that a “majority of airline passengers are willing to pay more” per flight “to fund airport improvements projects that would enable airports to accommodate more airlines, modernize facilities or reduce delays in and around the airport,” according to a poll conducted by the US Travel Association. Airports and travel groups want Federal lawmakers to increase the Passenger Facility Charge to help pay for airport improvements.

US Motorists Drove 237 Billion Miles In January. Citing data from the FHWA, Reuters (3/25) reports the significant rise in the number of miles driven by Americans continued into January. FHWA data shows that in January, Americans drove 237.3 billion miles, the most ever recorded for the month. In 2014, motorists in the US

240 drove more than 3 trillion miles. Analysts have said that several factors, including low fuel prices, contributed to the boost in mileage. A brief version of this Reuters article also appears in the New York Times (3/26, B2, Subscription Publication). Autoblog (3/25, Ramsey) reports that the rise in miles driven by US motorists has also resulted in more traffic congestion. According to the article, Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said motorists in the US are “stuck in traffic for the equivalent of nearly five days a year.” The report also notes that 44.1% of drivers are over the age of 50, noting “that number is up 22 percent compared to 2013.” Kemp: High Traffic Volume Boosting Fuel Demand. John Kemp writes in Reuters (3/25, Kemp) about the data from the FHWA, which shows record-level miles driven last year and in January. Kemp says that low fuel prices and the economic recovery have contributed to the sharp rise in traffic. He adds that the high traffic volume will likely continue to increase fuel demand.

U.S Drivers Top 3 Trillion Miles Due To Improved Economy And Low Gas Prices. Bloomberg News (3/23, Doan, Murtaugh) reports, “driving topped 3 trillion miles for the first time in seven years and is poised to climb higher this year” as a result of lower gasoline prices and an improved American economy. Travel is expected to increase “2 percent this year.” According to the Energy Information Administration, “gasoline consumption will rise 0.9 percent this year to 9 million barrels a day,” although, “the lower prices mean the average household will spend $1,802 for gasoline in 2015, $710 less than last year.”

Energy

Obama Administration Proposes Change To Resource Royalties On Public Lands. Bloomberg News (3/26, Drajem) reports that the Administration has “proposed to change how it collects royalties on coal mined from federal land, a move that environmentalists hope, and the industry worries, will cut use of the fuel linked to climate change.” The Interior Department says “the accounting change is needed to update rules adopted almost three decades ago, and streamline the program for companies.” Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said in a speech last week to the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, “It’s time for an honest and open conversation about modernizing the federal coal program.”

North Dakota To Challenge Federal Fracking Regulations. The AP (3/25) reports, “North Dakota is considering challenging a new federal fracking rule for US government lands,” only days after the Obama Administration approved regulations requiring companies to disclose chemicals used in the fracking of Federal land for oil and gas. “A final rule released Friday also updates requirements for well construction and disposal of water and other fluids. The US Bureau of Land Management rule, under consideration for more than three years, takes effect in June,” the article reports. “We need to take action,” Gov. Jack Dalrymple said of the law he says could interfere with the work of the state’s Water Commission and Health Department. Members of North Dakota’s congressional delegation have also voiced their opposition to the new regulations. Republican Sen. John Hoeven, Democratic Sen. Heidi Heitkamp and Republican Rep. Kevin Cramer last week said the Federal government should defer to the states on such rules.

DOE Considering Energy Conservation Standards For Pool Heaters, Direct Heating Equipment. The Hill (3/26, Devaney) reports the Energy Department “is considering new energy conservation standards for pool heaters and direct heating equipment.” The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy at DOE “is issuing a request for information on these heaters as it determines whether to move forward with new regulations. The public has 30 days to comment.”
